Verbs are words that show actions.

Action verbs are words that show physical actions.
Example: cry, jog, slap, kiss, sleep,
sing, etc.
Stative Verbs
Stative verbs are words that show state, desire, sense,
possession or opinion. In contrast to action verbs, we cannot picture the
physical actions. Therefore, many of these verbs cannot be used in continuous
tenses.
Example: seem, prefer, want, belong,
believe, etc.
Auxiliary Verbs
Auxiliary verbs are also called ‘helping verbs’ because they
are used to help other verbs to form tenses or perform other functions. There
are three common auxiliary verbs – to BE, to DO, to HAVE.
